Semesters have gone by where students have searched for interesting courses to fit into their curriculum. Whether its an elective or a core course, each student wants some excitement to look forward to on a day-to-day basis. This spring semester, Cabrini has spiced up their choices and added not-so-regular classes to add a bit of a change.
From taking Scriptwriting or learning about dreams in popular culture, the variety exceeds expectations. “I think Cabrini has done a great job in expansion and it’s making me sad I won’t be here to take any of them,” Ariel Brown, a senior criminal, sociology and political science major, said.
Being a student a Cabrini, we are required to take Engagements of the Common Good classes (ECGs). Luckily, for incoming freshmen, if they register in a timely manner, they have the option to take an ECG100 class called “Hip-Hop: A Language of Social Justice,” before it fills up. Giving students the chance to combine music and the teachings of Social Justice, this class already provides a different insight into the ECG world.
Philosophy has put some spring into their step as well. For students who love sports there is now a class completely dedicated to the “Philosophy of Sport” analyzing issues as a human activity. The major has also added a class completely devoted to learning about the philosophy of “Love.”
“In the future, I would like to see more hands on classes. I sometimes get bored of the traditional style of learning and would like to learn in a more interesting way,” said Ciera Bradsher, a junior psychology major.
